Overview"Many people turn to ""The Arts"" during periods of solitude, whether externally or internally imposed. They may have a deep-seated need, a passion, to make visual art statements. The letters are written to the reader/art-making companion to inspire the creation of their own artist's book in a blank journal. (The book itself becomes a companion to the reader.) Various art materials, media, and methods are written with accompanying art images to stimulate art-making with images and words. A greater understanding and appreciation of art, art composition, the handling of various art media, and methods of overcoming the ""blank paper/page syndrome"". Consider this artist's book of letters and images as a companion to come back to anytime with no time restraints. These letters become a guide to moments, hours, days, weekend retreats or solitude where one can be awarded with ""alone time"" to make art."
